[Jewelry making - Article 00611] - [Orchid] Matching Patina Color

[Grace & Tom Stokes]

    I have been making fine silver earrings with Keumboo that I like to
    patina. Inevitably, even if I dip both pieces in the solution at the
    same time one comes up brown and the other comes up blue. Now I
    recognize that patina in LOS is hard to control and some variances
    are acceptable and nice but they are so different. It seems like once
    that happens no matter how long I keep it in the solution it just
    won't match. Has anyone else had this problem or know of any
    solutions?
